Semi-finals

A draw was held to determine the semi-final pairings.

The first semi-final — between Cill Chartha and St Eunan's — was scheduled for 20:00 on Saturday 24 September at MacCumhaill Park, and to be streamed live (pay-per-view) on Donegal GAA TV, while the second semi-final — between Gaoth Dobhair and Naomh Conaill — was scheduled for 16:00 on Sunday 25 September also at MacCumhaill Park, and also to be streamed live (pay-per-view) on Donegal GAA TV. However, the first semi-final was postponed until the following weekend, due to bereavements (the father and sister of Brendan Devenney had both died, suddenly, and separately).

Naomh Conaill defeated Gaoth Dobhair by 0–13 to 1–8 in what was to have been the second semi-final, but ended up being the first played. St Eunan's defeated Cill Chartha by 1–13 to 1–11 in the other semi-final, with both victors qualifying for the 2022 championship final.

This was Naomh Conaill's sixth consecutive appearance in the final. The club won a sixth title.
